Title overview

Adolescence and Emerging Adulthood: A Cultural Approach helps you examine this dynamic age period through the lens of the world's diverse cultures. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, Jeffrey Jensen Arnett and new co-author Lene Arnett Jensen explore the impact of both cultural and historical context upon development. The text is distinguished by its emphasis on the period of emerging adulthood (ages 18 to 25), a growing area of study.

The 7th Edition offers new end-of-chapter reflections that encourage you to consider the big picture. Fresh content in each chapter pertaining to cultural similarities and differences helps you see how the development of adolescents and emerging adults is influenced by the culture in which they live.
